Staploe Solicitors LLP

What a very very very poor experience. Mine was relatively simple conveyance transaction (no chain from buyer or me the seller). Staploe gave a wonderful lesson in how NOT to communicate with you…. no matter how many times you call or leave messages. Staff changing regularly in my case and then the file getting picked up by someone else made things worse. Both my Estate Agent and buyers Solicitor hadn’t seen anything so bad. I wish I had checked out the reviews first. I don't like leaving poor reviews as can be a bad reflection on a business, but avoid like the plague.

We appointed Staploe based on their great reviews for conveyancing. Initially they were ok but a number of good staff left and we were left with a solicitor who doesn't return calls, takes ages to reply to emails and is holding up the whole chain as a result.

Quick service & very trustworthy compared to the rest legal firms

This was the first property I have sold and it was complicated as it was my uncles and I was power of attorney and I lived 80miles away. They had moved into a care home. The estate agent gave me some local solicitor's and I picked this one as they said it could be completed in 6-8 weeks. It took a lot longer and the market had changed by then and the buyer pulled out. About a year later we went again having to drop the price by £90.000. They said it should be straight forward as they had all the papers ready from last time. I was asked to complete form 11 which had two parts one to agree the sale and one part of what was being left behind. This part I could not fill in without speaking to the buyer and finding out what they wanted. The solicitor said this part did not matter and would deal with this later, just sign the form so the sale can go forward. I thought this strange as solicitors had to have everything correct. It would be better if this form was two separate forms. I am not sure which solicitor had the issues but the buyer, the estate agent and my self had to keep chasing them up to make sure each one had the correct paper work, driving back and forth with paper work, the estate agent said this was normal but did not seem very professional to me. The solicitors kept asking questions which the surveyor should have sorted out. The whole experience was not good and all seams to be on a whim, one solicitor said there were too many stamps on a power of attorney form which seems petty as it had been accepted all along and asking the dimensions of the property and were they any sheds on the boundary? The whole experience was not a pleasant one.

I used Staploe for the conveyancing of my house. The quoted price was very reasonable and the service was above and beyond.

Tom is very experienced and knows the law well. I will be making good use of his knowledge very soon.

We received great service,always had time to explain things we didn't understand,or found confusing.If they were unavailable to speak when we called,they would always call back, if they couldn't contact me they would contact my wife. Highly professional,friendly and understanding of the stresses of buying and selling your home

Thank you to Staploe solicitors for being so helpful to us via the conveyancing process. We had a very difficult time due to problems on the other side and Staploe were so helpful to us during a period that was very stressful for us. I highly recommend Staploe

If you need legal advice look no further. I had a few legal matters from court proceedings to buying and selling properties. Tom and Aaron have been brilliant and kept me updated on the process. Will definetly use their services again.
